This captivated me from the start. The setting alone is so well done that it felt real--from the cold planet surface to the insides of the space crafts. The characters are flawed and make decisions that lead to committing crimes, yet their motivations make them people I believed in and could make a difference in their world by ultimately helping others. The danger and suspense of the action kept me reading and not wanting to put this novel down.

The plot brings together characters who start out thinking they know what they want from their lives and that what they want makes them enemies, but then as they interact, they start to question everything they've ever been told and wonder what truly is the right thing to do. What makes a good person? These characters all face difficult challenges, not only physically, but emotionally as well. The ending had me cheering despite the bitter sweetness it brought.
